is it encouraged to put say a demo cd-r's id into the db or no?

h8: Depends how legit or widespread the demo is. My friend gave me a demo CD of his; it's one of about 10 in existence so I didn't enter it. Maybe if they become super huge someday I might. I generally don't enter the CD-Rs unless there are 100 or more out there and all have identical track listings, or perhaps if it is very likely that somebody else will come to the database looking how to tag their copies of the songs they acquired online.

kerensky: I'd add that demo cd of the 10 only varaity also. its music, it exsists

its not like he and his band *didn't* make the music

natta!

yea i mean this is 8/100 and i actually suspect they made another batch of maybe 100 but thats def it

ruaok: not _that_ important, just something I noticed :)

interesting. I'm not sure I care enough, warp. :)

haha, i figured as much.

hott!

i know it's YOU now anyway.

I tuned the index creation process for xapian and faster on my slow box than on the faster production box.

and svn knows its me. that's the most important part.

nice.

my goal was to build the track index in under three hours.

1:01 to spare!

:D

i can imagine

if all goes well next week, we will have 3 times our current search capacity and I return to full mb_server coding.

yay!

I just need DW to accept my terms for the next two years.

full mb_server coding sounds like much more fun than tuning search servers.

2xspace, 3amps more power for $50/mo less than before. :)

haha

its actually been fun. I've used a bunch of knowledge from a previous life in this project.

its much better than lucene. with lucene there was always some element of voodoo. not here.

hah, ok

the xapian docs say X, and I try it and exactly X happens. nice, real nice.

:D

bye :)

hm, something wrong with trac

login seems to be broken

ijabz: thanks.

ijabz: have you been playing with the search stuff in the last.... 24 hours?

:) trotzdem kleinstadt

auf jedem fall

ruoak:I tried the shady lane bug and it disnt appear to be fixed ...

..but now it is

I just swapped in the index a couple of hours ago.

after I got the index build time down to 2:58:59, down from 11:00:00

:-)

Im happy with the search stuff, but Ive got a list of other things to do today. Whats the eta for the server release

search server release? next week if all continues to go well.

we're renting more space, have servers ready... should be easy to deploy.

I'm working on a few niggling bugs.

like, how come qdur doesn't work?

qdur: i didnt notice this :(

I'm on it.

but, if you have a few minutes of time, I'd appreciate it.

I made a big change.

namely, the default operator was OR.

now its AND

which changes the nature of things and it would be good if you could sanity check things for a little while.

if something is off it should be obvious right off.

aside qdur of course.

Ok, Ill run some tests later on when your asleep
